Hello from not so beautiful and not so sunny Orlando…the land of Mickey and Minnie Mouse and way too many other theme parks…and conventions. OK, enough with the crankiness. I’m here (for the second time this month) attending SAP’s big SAPPHIRENOW event…and when I mean big, I mean real big. I lost count at 10,000 [...] Solution Selection for Enterprise Mobility

The Costco Approach To Enterprise Mobility
Hello from not so beautiful and not so sunny Orlando…the land of Mickey and Minnie Mouse and way too many other theme parks…and conventions. OK, enough with the crankiness. I’m here (for the second time this month) attending SAP’s big SAPPHIRENOW event…and when I mean big, I mean real big. I lost count at 10,000 [...] Rudyard Kipling’s Take On Mobile Enterprise Apps
Another day, another airplane. Well, at least that’s how I feel today. Yesterday, I was in New Orleans at the App-Solutely Enterprise event and today I am on my way to Las Vegas for the Interop show. Don’t these trade groups know it’s not nice to make us have to pick one versus the other, [...] The Enterprise Mobility Policy Guidebook: April 2012 Edition
This is the latest edition of the mobility policy guidebook that includes additional recommendations based on the changing needs of the workplace, including tablets, app stores and individually liable devices. What’s new in this edition: The COPE Model (Corporate Owned, Personally Enabled) This is an alternative to BYOD Corporate Data Access GeoFencing 3rd Party Apps [...] Inside Looking Out: An Executive View on Enterprise Mobility with Naeem Zafar
It’s certainly been a while, but welcome back to the latest edition of Inside Looking Out. We had the opportunity to sit down last week with Naeem Zafar, CEO of Bitzer Mobile, an enterprise mobility solution provider that utilizes a secure, mobile app container to isolate corporate access and data. We covered a broad range [...] Creating a Satisfied Customer – What The Carriers Need To Do Now
The recent news from AT&T about the end of unlimited wireless data came as no surprise, but still raised my hackles more than a bit. Sure, only Sprint still offers unlimited data, but on a more limited network (in terms of coverage and capacity, anyway, along with a still-shaky corporate image). OK, let’s be fair: [...] Struggling With BYOD? Five Things Every Workplace Should Consider As They COPE With Enterprise Mobility
BYOD – Bring Your Own Device – is currently one of the most frequently discussed issues in enterprise mobility. Although often used as a synonym for The Consumerization of Information Technology, BYOD and CoIT are two distinct, albeit highly overlapping trends. This document is meant to provide organizations an alternate approach – through five simple [...] Could There Be a Better Way to COPE With BYOD In The Enterprise?
“You can have any color you want…as long as it’s black.” That’s a quote that is attributed to Henry Ford. It makes me think about the “old days” of enterprise mobility…you know, the ones before we had the consumerization of IT and the tsunami better known as Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). You could have [...] Social Networking: Complete Waste of Time, and the Future of Enterprise Communications
Who was it that said that life is full of contradictions? Today’s topic is indeed one of those, at least at first glance. I’m a guy who doesn’t have a Facebook account. I do have a Twitter account, but I don’t use it. I’m on Linkedin because I thought it might be a good idea [...] A Brief Recap of The 2012 AppNation Enterprise Summit
I love being a road warrior. While it can be a drag at times to have to explain to people that my office is seat 8C on United Airlines, it does keep me in check with my better half. I may, however, have taken it to the extreme last week. After an 18 hour trip [...] Reflecting On Enterprise Mobility in 2011: Part II
Now that we are oh so close to the end of 2011, I thought it might be “fun” to continue reminiscing on the world of enterprise mobility in 2011 by looking back at last year’s market predictions from the Enterprise Mobility Foundation. See, a lot of organizations out there like to put out predictions, but [...]
